Through the social media site Twitter, the folks at Houston's 1560 The Game were able to arrange an on-air interview with Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco (otherwise known as OGOchoCinco on Twitter because one man can never have enough names, I suppose).In the interview, Ochocinco discusses many things: how he will have a new checklist in his locker; how he truly is going to live with Carson Palmer's family; and how he wants to be more of team guy than a "me" guy this year. At the 2:34 mark in the interview, he discusses his love of Twitter and the way he will be using it next year:
And when the season starts, it's going to get even worse. I'm going to really make it fun. I'm using Twitter during games. I'm using Twitter during half time. I'm using it after games. I'm taking it to the next level.Here's the link to the entire Ochocinco interview. Unsurprisingly, the NFL is not amused. Cellular devises are not allowed in bench areas, so he might have to wait to get his tweet on unless he is interested in getting fined some more.
The interview in sum: Ochocinco intends to be more of a team guy while he uses social media to promote much more Ochocinco and get his words out to the masses.

He seems scared to catch the ball after getting KOed. Guess this is just an attempt to remain relevent since he is Mr. Irrelevent on the field...

I think Chilly is correct. Ocho Dopo is trying to have his mouth do what his body and mind can no longer do. He is so overrated now. The NFL should dump the chump and let him try making a living with his mouth. He will starve.

I am so done with this guy. He represents everything that is wrong with modern athletes. I don't buy for a second that he's more team oriented. You summed it up best in your closing, Steph: His mouth says that he wants to be more of a team guy while his actions show it's still all about him.
